J Obstet Gynaecol India. 2025 Jun;75(3):261-263. doi: 10.1007/s13224-025-02131-7. Epub 2025 May 21.

Abstract

Fallopian tube prolapse following hysterectomy is an uncommon condition that can be mistaken for vaginal vault granulation tissue or vaginal vault cancer. We present two cases of post-hysterectomy fallopian tube prolapse that were successfully treated using a combination of laparoscopic and vaginal approaches. Performing hysterectomy combined with routine salpingectomies can prevent fallopian tube prolapse and offer additional protection against tubal and ovarian cancers.
